#28625 [Opn->Bgs]: Max POST size overflow

ID: 28625 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: jordi at bunster dot org -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: HTTP related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.3.4 New Comment: PHP only supports signed integers, which only go to 2GB - 1. After that it 'overflows' to negative values. THis is not considered a bug but a feature. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-06-03 20:18:32] jordi at bunster dot org Description: ------------ Giving post_max_size a value equal or greater than 2GB on php.ini causes php to overflow the variable it uses to store that value. The result is log entries similar to this: "POST Content-Length of 0 bytes exceeds the limit of -2147483648 bytes" Reproduce code: --------------- Set post_max_size to 2G or more on php.ini, execute a POST operation on a php script. Expected result: ---------------- The POST operation should complete, according to the limits specified on php.ini Actual result: -------------- "POST Content-Length of 0 bytes exceeds the limit of -2147483648 bytes" or similar entries on the webserver logfile, POST fails. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28625&edit=1
